Brand: WEST System
Located in: Epoxy and Adhesives, Epoxy Resin
207 Special Clear Hardener was especially developed for use with West System 105 resin in coating applications where an exceptionally clear moisture-resistant natural wood finish is desired. Improved formula chemistry allows for true clear cure with same UV stability without amber tint. An ultraviolet inhibiting additive improves the resistance of a West System 105/207 mixture to sunlight but the cured epoxy surface will still require the additional protection of a quality UV-filtering varnish. 207 is designed to self level for smooth finishes and to wet-out and bond fabrics. Although it provides good physical properties for general bonding applications, it is more difficult to thicken and less cost effective for this purpose than 205 or 206 hardeners. It's also used for laminating veneers where bleed through at joints may be exposed to sunlight.

Comments about WEST System WEST System 207 Special Clear Hardener:

I like this product for exterior use under a varnish. In my own tests it at least doubles the life of the varnish.

Be aware that West is changing 207 from "Special Coating Hardener" to "Special Clear Hardener" under the same part number. The new product drops the Amber tint. Normally this isn't a big deal but if you are caught in the middle of a project and switch there can be a noticeable difference. It would be nice if West would have a tint additive if you wanted to continue using the Amber product (which is discontinued in production) much the same as Crystalac does with its warm dye toner, which changes the clear to traditional varnish tone.
